Choosing the Right Bandit Woodchipper

How do I choose the best Bandit woodchipper for my needs?

Consider these factors when selecting a Bandit woodchipper:

• Wood size and volume – Use a hand-fed chipper for small limbs and a whole tree chipper for large logs.

• Portability needs – Choose a towable chipper for job site mobility or a self-propelled model for off-road work.

• Cutting mechanism – Select a disc-style chipper for speed or a drum-style chipper for high-powered chipping.
